At Sunday night, after the gates of Castlefest are closed. The camping guests have a party on their own. One of the band's that will join us at this camping-only party is Sunfire.
The band Sunfire has been causing quite a stir, literally and figuratively. On many stages throughout the Netherlands and the rest of Europe this group from the Hague have performed their own and innovative Western Folk style: a tasty mix of solid americana, folk, country, bluegrass, roots and rock. Everywhere they come, the roof is raised to its limits.”Whoever doesn’t get a kick out of this is brain dead.” according to Folk Magazine
Dressed entirely according to the latest western fashion in the late nineteenth century and armed to the teeth with musicianship Sunfire brings compelling stories and exciting music from the Old West, where standing still is not an option. Expect drama, excitement and a touch of humor during a show, whether it is at a festival, a music venue or a theater performance. Hold on to your hats, because these pioneers of the Western Folk Scene will take you along for a ride.
The band consists of:
- Satria Karsono (lead vocals, banjo, guitar)
- Sophie Zaaijer (violin, vocals)
- Berend de Vries (guitar, vocals)
- Jeroen van Leeuwen (drums, vocals)
- Michel Beeckman (bass, vocals)
